Hydro rates in Ontario are going up – by some reports as much as 42 per cent
over the coming five years. But oddly enough, hydro rates have been rising while
electricity demand has fallen. It’s no mystery as to why. The annual reports
provided by Hydro One over the past five years spell it out in black and white.
While we are consuming less, costs at Hydro One have risen dramatically, far
outstripping inflation and the growth in our population. via
